Last weekend my father and I made a trip down to Valencia to finish up donating my car that had given up the ghost on a trip to southern California the previous weekend with my wife. We figured that we'd make the best of it and drive back up hwy 1 the next day and photograph some of California's beautiful coast.

More images after the jump...

After finishing up the paperwork at the auto shop, and grabbing the rest of my belongings out of the car, we jumped on the 126 and headed for Ventura. I had gone to school in Ventura at Brooks Institute of Photography studying photojournalism so I'm pretty familiar with the town. We decided that clam chowder and fish and chips were in order and headed over to Andrea's in the harbor. Great stuff!

After dinner and a beer we headed across the street for the beach at sunset and the resulting images are below. Enjoy and check back tomorrow for images of the next day further up the coast.
